CreateATX crashed the Adobe Creative Jam last month and have the recap to share with you.

There were a few speakers and the Jam was based a competition. With a focus on UX Design, teams were given the theme “Don’t Panic” and had 3 hours to complete their work using Adobe XD. Check out the winners and more details about the event here: https://www.behance.net/gallery/62314527/Austin-Creative-Jam

During this meeting, Bob Matthews will take us on a journey of Adobe’s apps for mobile devices. There are more than 12 of them, but we’ll take a look at these 12. Some of them we’ll only describe and take a glance at; others we’ll spend more time on.

Hosted by the Austin Adobe User Group.
